All eyes have been on Reno — with everyone hoping that “the Wildest, Richest Rodeo in the West” would get rodeo back in gear this summer.

Sadly the Reno Rodeo Association announced their decision tonight to cancel this year’s Reno Rodeo, scheduled to be held June 18–27, 2020, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

“This was not an easy decision, and we know the impacts are far-reaching,” said George Combs, General Manager of the Reno Rodeo. “We had hoped the state and nation’s recovery from this pandemic would allow for community events by mid-June and this would be something the region could look forward to. Unfortunately, this global crisis has forced us all to make sacrifices and work through this unprecedented situation. After many discussions with leading government and health authorities, as well as the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association, we are certain that this is the right action.”

The Reno Rodeo will be offering guests who have purchased tickets the three options. Find out more here.
